UIPickerView - 1st row selection does not call didSelectRow

Question

I have a UIPickerView on my UIView along with a UITextField. I am letting the user select a value from the picker or enter a custom va

Answer 1

Instead of "pushing" the value of the picker each time you make a selection with this code:

- (void)pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView didSelectRow:(NSInteger)row inComponent:(NSInteger)component

you should "pull it" when the user clicks the button (or other event you are using) using something similar to:

- (void)myAction:(id)sender
{

    NSInteger row = [myPicker selectedRowInComponent:0];
    selectedText = [myArray objectAtIndex:(NSUInteger)row];


}

For clearing the text: The UITextField class provides a built-in button for clearing the current text. So if the user does not want that text he can discard it.

myTextField.clearButtonMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways; 

So in the script, will you check if the TextField has a value, if it does have a value u use the TextField, if it doesn't have a value, you pull the information from the Picker.
